jin this section of the State-ene, w

No man in Sumter County is fbrthe
removed from anything Uko participa
tiorf- th or-'symnathy with K*I K!??!S?
or mob-law in any shape, than is HOSE
WILSON. He is one of our most quiol
gcuerous and inoffensive, honest au
industrious, fair dealing and law abidio
citizens; and the outrage, not only upo
him, but upon all that olasa of our cit
sens, is monstrous. It touches, an
must excite, to a greater or less eaten
tho more oalm and solid and d?lib?rai
portion of our people. It must arout
tho sensibilities of the beat elements i
the commun i ty, and exhibit, in the
true light, the unfortunate condition
things by which we are surrounded.
We are informed that a few nigh
previous to the burning of Mr. Wi
SON'S barn, a colored man, named Jo
DAN, who keeps a shop near Lyaohburj

whipped, and that this terrible ou tra)

It has oome to us, further; from a rel
able source, that JORDAN and hts a.?8
ciates have declared that they w
reduoe that whole country to ashes.
In this condition of things, the
should be exercised prudence and to

any man should take counsel of Y
fours. The (ruth is, the people of tl
section must and will defend and pr
toot themselves and their properly-ai
this they will do ai all huanrds and
the last extremity. And if the shod
ing drama of blood i's forced upon the
and must be enacted, appealing to G
and their country that they are n
responsible, they 'will go into it ful
fledged, and let tho gory current fl?
copiously. It takes no prophet to t
which side will suffer most from such
conflict. Wherever tho deluded a

now feel, io any sense, intimidated.

' SHOCKING RAIL HOAD ACCIDBNT*
' Oue of the must terrible accidents hy

I tireen ville and Columbia Railroad, at
- Cedar Creek trestle, about twelve milos
' above Columbia, on Thursday afternoon
' last, ut half past 3 o'clock.
I JAMES A HOYT, Esq., editor of the An

petsens- wer? injured iu the ladies'

I The engineer hud' slacked up to cross
I I over the bridge, and was ?us! beginning
II to increase the ruto of speed when tho
1 crash came. Hut for tkiv fact, thc loss
ot life aud limb would have been fear-*
J fully increased, as thc train had been
I running at fiftceu miles au hour, and
I was behind time. In less limo than it
takes to record it, there was a scone of
indescribable suffering aud agony.
Anxious, inquiring fice* among thc
I fortunate, mid shrieks for help among
II the wounded, revealed a terrible scene.
' Those who escaped injury were ut once
